Description

The Devils Water is one of the major tributaries of the North Tyne, draining from Hexhamshire Common before running through a tight bedrock canyon, forest and farmland before finally joining the River Tyne above Corbridge. The Swallowship beat runs from Linnels Bridge for 1.6km through haughland and canyon ending as the river emerges into farmland above Dilston. It offers a mix of grades of fishing with wide open pools and steep sided rock cliffs to test even the most daring angler!
